triPod speakers

Yeah, it's a very clever pun, but there are obviously a few design flaws with the triPod, a set of portable iPod speakers that runs off of a single AAA battery. Having to prop your iPod upside down is one of them, but the other thing that's bugging us is the fact that there are three speakers and yet the triPod is supposed to offer stereo sound. Obviously the left and right are already spoken for, so either you've got to dupe one of the channels (which could make things sound weird) or one of the speakers is pumping out mono (which sort of makes it irrelevant). Or it's some sort of very tiny subwoofer.
